I don't envy your task of emptying files and cabinets. I am have been going through my house and decluttering since I left work last year. It seems an endless task, especially when I need to wait for a helping hand when the boxes are filled or I need to move heavier items. I will sort out the new curtains when the carpet has arrived which will be after Christmas now. Congratulations on your retirement. I don’t envy your task of emptying files and cabinets.

I had my retirement party last week, and tomorrow is the first day of the next phase of my life. I have to empty all the files, cabinets and book shelves that have collected since 1971... more than could ever be imagined! And when all that gets collected and recycled, then the painting will be (re-)done and the new blinds ordered. It takes forever to get every element just right, doesn’t it?
